    I just know that SOMEONE(My guess: Katara or Sokka) is going to run into SOMEONE(Zuko) and I can't wait to see what happens.

    By the way, I'm predicting the person who finds him will announce his secret and go get to the brainwashers. Sokka is my best bet on this one.

    If they brainwashed sokka and aang will find out about that i think he'll be kinda pissed off about all of them, cuz first he's being blackmailed through appa (and if it happens) and then sokka is getting brainwashed, i'll be pissed off as hell.

    What i thought was strange (in City Of Walls and Secrets) is that when toph got captured she didn't notice that someone was sneaking up on them???

    Well, the Dai L:ee are supposed to be the kings guards, so there isn't anything unusual about them being there. And she wouldn't have seen the glove coming at her cause it was in the air. I suppose she could have seen??the glove coming off as it left the hand and reacted, but I guess she was just focused on something else.

    Kings guards should never be mixed with the crowd so where they were standing was just strange, ofcourse she was probably distracted but still like you said that attacking hand glove should have caught here attention.
    Another fact sokka was the first one being captured she must have felt that cuz they were leaving the room which is impolite when a king has just entered the room it's probaly illegal over there as wel.

    someone said that shes been to bs sing se before (not sure if thats true) and you know all of the "a bucnh of walls and rules" stuff she was talking about...

    and at the end when long feng was talking to them and toph was like "hes your puppet!" and then went quiet and just began looking sadder and like she had some kind of burdon.... and when katara said "you cant keep the truth from all these people they have to know" and aang yelled "ill tell them ill make sure everyone knows" and that whole time toph seemed to be remembering or thinking about something that was troubling her a lot..especially at the mention of keeping things from people...

    maybe she is just sad that this is "her" nation and that it's acting like this... also she seemed angry... maybe becaus she knows how it is to be left out from everything and to behave in a way others want her to behave...

    He'll be okay. If you read in my "Remains of Earth" thread I feel Jet's redemption and a second chance is more likely than Zuko's.

    Maybe I should post those theories here. A few folks seem to think 'em likely.
